More quotes by Wendy Carlos
I suppose I was affected by raw sounds and timbres more than a lot of other composers. Had I been involved with orchestral composing, I think the aspect that would have most endeared me to that field would have been the orchestration.
Wendy Carlos
What is full of redundancy or formula is predictably boring. What is free of all structure or discipline is randomly boring. In between lies art.
Wendy Carlos
A nice blend of prediction and surprise seem to be at the heart of the best art.
Wendy Carlos
I'm really a very weak musicologist. Wish it weren't so, but there's only so much you can dig deeply into in one lifetime, as if you hadn't noticed.
Wendy Carlos
Composition has almost always been solitary.
Wendy Carlos
It's best to incorporate a broadly eclectic point of view, and let whatever moves you be your inspiration.
Wendy Carlos
As human beings we do change, grow, adapt, perhaps even learn and become wiser.
Wendy Carlos
